Keep your eye on our football team. It looks as if Frank Day were not to be rememberd by President Wilson with a good, fat - salaried office. Frank Day is deserving of a good ap- pointment, if ever a man were. He labored hard for Wilson. But, then, Mr. Day 1s very.much better off looking after his paper, the Fair- ‘mont Sentinel. In a way, a political Job 1s a curse to any man. Better to spend the time building up your own business. 325,000 Fords In Use When- the Ford Motor Company tlosed it business for the year on 8Sept. 30th approximately 325,000 Model T. Fords were in use though- out the world, by far the larger part “being driven in the United States of course. What this really means is simply dazzling when the concrete figures are considered. It means, if all the machines were owned in this country that there would be one for one per-|’ son in each 275 in the nation. In the year which just closed the company built well up towards the 200,000 mark which had been pre- dicted. No announcement has been made yet regarding ‘the production plans for 1914 but from the active “manner in which construction"is be- ing rushed on the big additions ‘o the plants at Detroit, and also the number -of assembling plants being erected throughout the ¢&ountry, ic is apparent that the company is pre- paring for a big production year. Do Railroads Control Coal Light on one trust which probably grips the people of the United States harder than other, with posibly one exception, is being sought by ‘Rep- resentative W. F. Murray of Massa-~ chusetts. This is the anthractie coal trust. Mr. Murry has introduced a resolution in the house calling upon the Departments of Commerce and Labor and the Interestate Com- merce Commission to furnish data showing the capijtalization and inter- corporate relation ship of the east- ern coal carrying railroads and of the coal mining companies affiliated with them. “I have reason to believe,” says Mr. Murray, “that these executive departments have information in their posession already sufficient to show that more than 90 per cent of the available anthracite only means of transporting this'coal to market.” Hill Refuses Aid “I have letters from Minnesota asking for 500 women to become wives,” sald Miss Caroline Smith'l head of the Woman'’s board of trade in Boston. “The men out there mean business, and the 500 are the kind of women these farmers want.

IF BACKACHY OR “KIDNEYS BOTHER Eat elss' meat and take a glass ‘of Salts to fiush out kidenys— Drink plenty water Rric acid in meat exciies the kid- fieys, they become overworked; get sluggish, ache, and feel like lumps of lead.. The urine becomes cloudy; the bladder is irritated, and you may-be obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night. When the kidneys clog you must help them flush off the body’s urinous waste or you’ll be a real sick person in the kidney region, you suffer from backache, sick headache, dizziness, stomacha gets sour, tongue coated and you feel rheu matic twinges when the weather "is bad. Eat less meat, drink lots of wa- four ounces of Jad Salts; take a ta- blespoonfull in a glass of water be- fore breakfast for a few days and your kidniys will then act fine. This famous salts is made fro the acid of grapes and lemon juice, com- bined with lithia, and has been used for generations to clean clogged kid- neys and stimulate them to normal activity, also to neutralize the acids in urine, so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. Jad Salts is expensive, cannot in- jure; make a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which every- one should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active. Druggists here say they sell lots of Jad Salts to floks = who belleve in overcoming kidney trouble while it is omly trouble.

By order of Police Commisgioner John Gillespie every resort in the city was forced to close and its inmates either icave Detroit or find some lawful mears of support. It is estimated that 2,000 women are affected by the order. i After several months careful study and investigation of conditions in other cities the police commissioner determ:ned upon abolition rather than segregation of vice in Detroit. How-] ever he has openly announced that the police department will not.concern’| itself with what becomes of the wom- en who are thus forced to abandom their ‘“‘profession.” The work of reformation has been undertaken by a committee made up of members of the Detroit chamber of commerce, church organizations and other societies interested in the subject. The committee has arranged to feed, clothe and educate in a local institution all former resort inmates who may come to it for aid until such a time as they are physically and morally fitted to go into the world and earn a lawful living. As an alternative the committee has offered to furnish railroad trans- portation. to all former resort in- mates who may desire to go to their homes. oo b oo oo ofe cle ole ol oo oo ok oo ofe oo el oh e BRYAN DEPLORES PURSUIT {OF WEALTH. ‘Washington, Oct. 16.—Pur- suit of wealth was deplored by Secretary Bryan in an address at the fall conference of the presbytery of Washington dis- trict.
